The madlads they finally did it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Eo2uq5k1O0

One of my friends from undergrad solved an erdos problem a couple years ago during the first year of his PhD... Absolutely insane.

This exact thing made me stop wanting to use reddit

I would like to add completion mechanics and badges to this list of things as well. Reddit is obsessed with 100% completion. It stops being a game and starts being work at some point.

I don't know when it happened, but at some point in the past it stopped being about playing games for fun, and turned into playing these things for something else - status maybe? I don't know how to describe what I'm thinking.

Yeah, I had to remove myself from gaming subs.
